i've used 'eternal' exhausts who sell on ebay. they're based in germany but are very cheap, usually 2 day shipping and the quality is excellent - much better than bosal or your standard quick fit type junk. For my omega the quality was better than genuine vaux.

Might be worth checking them out.....

Just one thing the note with eternal - fitting kits are not supplied, you have to order them separately and the quality has sometimes been questionnable
